pretty much.

the dems had a field day with bush for 8 years.

the reeps will do the same with obama.

there are bigger things in life, and he's still the president.

Bush's verbal gaffes were funny, this is not.

So Bush's mistakes in which he unintentionally either mis-spoke or said a sentence that sounded funny make him an idiot. An idiot with degrees from both Harvard and Yale I might add.

Obama's "mistake" in which he intentionally bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia is ok though.

You are right about one thing- there IS a big difference.

Just because one has an Ivy League education doesn't make them any less of an idiot.

Why are you still harping on this?

You got another 4 years to catalog Obama's gaffes if you so desire...let this one go.

there are plenty of "idiots" with degrees with harvard and yale. bush was a repeat offender. if you really want, one could go through 8 years of political gaffes. it's ok if you dislike obama, but your severe bias is showing.

i never said obama's mistake was ok. however, i'm not getting bent out of shape because of it. i don't think you want to compare obama's and bush's educational records. one is a lesson in mediocrity, the other isn't.
